These back-to-back 3Arena shows promise an exciting blend of her biggest hits — such as “Smile,” “Not Fair,” “The Fear,” and “Somewhere Only We Know” — alongside fan favourites and fresh material from her evolving artistic catalogue.

Lily Allen is one of the most distinctive and influential British pop artists of the 21st century, known for her sharp wit, observational storytelling, and genre-blending sound. Emerging in the mid-2000s, Allen first gained attention through early uploads on MySpace, where her conversational lyrical style and fresh take on pop music quickly set her apart. Her debut album, Alright, Still (2006), became a breakout success, propelled by hits like “Smile,” “LDN,” and “Knock ’Em Out.” The album established her as a bold voice capable of pairing bright, upbeat production with tongue-in-cheek commentary — a combination that resonated with audiences and critics alike. Her second album, It’s Not Me, It’s You (2009), expanded her musical palette further, leaning into synth-pop and electronic influences while maintaining her signature lyrical honesty. Tracks such as “The Fear,” “Not Fair,” and “22” showcased her ability to tackle themes like fame, modern culture, and personal relationships with humour and emotional clarity. The album topped charts internationally and cemented Allen’s status as an artist unafraid to evolve while staying true to her voice. Later projects, including Sheezus (2014) and No Shame (2018), continued this artistic growth, incorporating more introspective storytelling and explorations of identity, motherhood, and self-discovery. Lily Allen’s live performances are celebrated for their charm, relatability, and the effortless connection she builds with her audience. She blends high-energy pop moments with more intimate, reflective segments, resulting in concerts that feel personal and emotionally rich. Her return to major stages in 2026 — including the two-night run at the 3Arena — is highly anticipated by fans who have followed her career through its many creative chapters. While setlists vary, fans often hope to hear beloved hits such as “Smile,” “Not Fair,” “The Fear,” “Somewhere Only We Know,” and “Trigger Bang,” alongside deep cuts and newer work. These Dublin performances offer a rare opportunity to experience Lily Allen in an indoor arena setting that amplifies both the energy and emotional depth of her music. The 3Arena provides the ideal environment for the rich visuals, playful interactions, and powerful vocal moments that define her live shows. Whether you have followed her since the beginning or discovered her music more recently, this two-night residency promises to deliver a standout concert experience filled with personality, nostalgia, humour, and heartfelt performance.About Lily Allen
